  1. he then gave the Twins 109 PAs of .635 OPS and was gone. It means next to nothing.
  2. Next year, I hope Rocco (and the front office) recognizes the futility of "resting" players during the regular season. Rocco has given players way too much scheduled time off, to what benefit? All you do is willingly hold your better players out of too many games. It does little to nothing in terms of keeping them healthy, or "rested." All it does is intentionally reduce the number of games played by your best lineup.
  3. Can we stop referring to this substance as "over the counter?"
  4. This is an indication of the health of the Twins outfield, nothing more nothing less. Nobody on the twins thinks Lamarre is any kind of answer, nor is this about "giving him a chance." This isnt about Lamarre grounding a couple singles to right field last spring. The Twins are short of healthy outfielders and are trying to limp out the regular season. Lamarre happened to be available.
  5. Pretty entertaining game. They have a punchers chance at the B1G West.
  6. the umpire had nothing to do with Rosario's bases loaded AB. Rosario was up 2-0, then (as he is want to do) took a wild hack at what would have been ball 3, down and in. Ball 3 ensued, then Rosario popped out weakly to left on a pitch high and away. I sometimes feel like the better count Rosario finds himself in, the MORE likely he is to swing at the next pitch, regardless location. I think hitters should absolutely look to do damage on 2-0, 3-1 counts, but only on pitches that can be damaged. Rosario just decides to swing, seemingly before thebputch is thrown.
  7. LAVikesfan (and Pineda himself) says he took "over the counter" medications. The website I listed says the substance he tested positive for is only available by prescription. Which, if accurate, means Pineda's story cant be true. And either way, it's both "fishy" to the point of smelling, and more than I'm willing to give him any kind of pass for.
  8. the Mets have JD Davis and Michael Conforto in LF and RF. Both younger than Rosario, both out-hitting Rosario. The Mets weren't trading pitching for Rosario at the deadline and ain't this winter, either.
  9. According to this website, it's only available by prescription, so "over the counter" appears questionable. https://www.drugs.com/hydrochlorothiazide.html Either way, taking something "from a friend" is at best, risky to the point of being stupid. And I dont think he's stupid.
  10. http://cdn1.bigcommerce.com/n-yp39j5/1l90y/products/37683/images/37878/GLENN_BORGMANN_20614G__02124.1408142134.220.220.JPG?c=2
  11. I used to get really annoyed watching Gardy pull scouting reports out of his ***.
  12. Buxton's going out to the OF anyway, might as well let him run.
  13. Yeah, but say what you will, he has always kept his head in the game.
  14. HBP? Edit: which, come to think ot it, would be, uh, throwing above the shoulders. Which, as we all know, is strictly against the unwritten rules.
